Mountain Getaway, Tranquility, Beauty, Ambience, Stunning View

If your quest is to find the finest mountain view laid-back Ambience Arizona has to offer then you've come to the right place (so our guests tell us.)

MiraMontes guests frequently comment how well they sleep - better than they can ever remember. Must be the peace and quiet, fresh mountain air and comfortable beds.

MiraMontes itself has approx. 2250 sq ft indoor space with at least that much again in verandas and decks, set on 12 acres with Catalina State Park and mountains as a backdrop.

MiraMontes views include 20,000 acres of mountain without a neighbor in sight. Yet MiraMontes is just 5-10 minutes from a gas station, grocery store, golf, and restaurants.

Each bedroom has its own private bathroom...the Master bedroom opens to the pool enclosure. The master bedroom bathroom with its enormous shower tiled with travertine has a mountain view.
A third bedroom with private bathroom is available upon request. Please contact the owner for details

Between the bedroom suites is an adequate well-stocked linen cupboard..

. The dining table with black leather high-backed chairs seats 8-10 comfortably.
Patio furniture can easily be configured to seat 4, 6 or 10 guests for dinner..an ambience you and your guests will never forget. All kitchen appliances are electric. A gas-burning grill is on the Patio for those who enjoy barbecues.

From Miramontes one can hike in any direction. Up the mountain, along the wash, down the hill - it is all lovely.

MiraMontes offers exceptional bird watching. Quail, falcons, hawks, owls, vultures, the occasional eagle. Cactus wrens abound. Even year-round hummingbirds. Roadrunners are frequent visitors.

MiraMontes' easterly orientation catches the warm morning sun. The verandas provide shade during the midday and afternoon glare.

Great for entertaining especially as the sun goes down - Sundowner time is always special at MiraMontes.

Sunsets transform the mountain to a pink glow. the moon rises and the stars come out...
Imagine the resident pair of great-horned owls calling gently to each other; the musical sound of a distant coyote yelping party.

An occasional nocturnal owl, kit fox or havelina sighting is enough to change the subject of almost any conversation.

The aroma of woodsmoke is especially seductive under Arizona night sky illuminated by the brightest stars.

Miramontes has an indoor beehive fireplace and an outdoor woodburning fireplace especially enjoyable by star - or moonlight..

Miramontes is listed as 'wheelchair-accessible.' All rooms are on the same floor and the flooring is travertine which facilitates indoor wheelchair manoevering. The grounds, surroundings and hikes are not at all wheelchair-accessible however.

Beautiful Location and a Well Maintained Home

The home is beautiful and spacious and very well maintained. The property is lovely and is a quiet desert oasis. We really enjoyed the pool and the local wildlife - especially the Gila Monster that crawled up through the fence one day - really cool. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Peace and Quiet

House is located just slightly off the beaten path, so if you are looking to unwind and enjoy some peace and quiet, great location. View of the Catalina Mountains is terrific, and if you are inclined to watching either sunrise or sunset, you can do both. We really enjoyed our time there.

Spectacular views, tranquil, quiet property on the foothills of the Catalina Mountains

A beautiful home in a very quiet location - we loved the wildlife sounds at night - Great Horned Owls and howling coyotes. Abundant bird species on the property and along the dirt roads in the neighborhood with many that came to drink from the infinity pool! The stars and moon were breathtaking with no artificial lights to obscure them. We didn't want to leave!

Most relaxing house ever

The views of the Catalina Mountains were amazing. The house was immaculate. Spent most of our time on the back patio watching the birds drink out of the pool. Beds were very comfortable. This is the best vrbo house we have ever stayed in - and we have stayed at many in the past. Thank you Elma for your hospitality.

MiraMontes: A Phenomenal Property

Hans and Elma have created a haven of peace, tranquility and relaxation. The desert, in all its magnificence, is on full display. Truly - both words and photos fall short in capturing the beauty and the feeling of MiraMontes. It is a phenomenal property and a visit with my family that I will always treasure. We look forward to booking again soon!

It’s off the beaten path but in a good way

This house is off the beaten path. We had a rental car and would recommend a small suv as a better option for most people but you can drive a car in there so long as it’s dry. House is gorgeous, pool is not heated but we took a swim in February because we couldn’t pass it up. Hot tub allows you to sit out under the stars. Elma was very quick to respond to questions.

Arizona Gem

Gorgeous home off the beaten path, just north of Tucson, in Catalina Az. If peace and quiet and wonderful mountain views are what you're looking for, this is the place. Wildlife abounds, lots of hiking options within a short drive, along with many fun places to visit. Elma is the nicest host we have had the pleasure of meeting, and our family has been renting vacation homes for 10 plus years now! Her home is perfect for 2 or 3 couples to enjoy time out in the Arizona wilds. Pool, hot tub, stargazing, wonderful sunsets, and so quiet you might wonder if the world has come to a stop...lol!

A 'must see' to enjoy the mountain/desert experience

First, the hosts, Hans and Elma were a pleasure to work with. What wonderful people. Second, the house is situated far off the main roads allowing for privacy, serenity and enjoyment of the spectacular mountains that are right there. The patio, nice pool, upper deck on the house and the new hot tub by the pool all face the mountains. Viewing the spectacular sunsets, sunrises and nighttime sky (stars and planets) were a great way to start and end the day. The house is comfy and well appointed.

Beautiful setting!!

We stayed at MiraMontes for a month and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The mountain views from the house were spectacular as well as the colorful sunsets. The house itself was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. The kitchen was a chef's dream. We ended up cooking most of our meals and the outside grill came in very handy. Our host, Elma, was a delight and very responsive to our needs. We would highly recommend MiraMontes for those considering a relaxing, private setting with all the amenities. Wayne and Lenore

Beautiful Views and even better sunsets

Peaceful mountain yet still close to modern conveniences! Use caution hiking out the back door though, everything is prickly. Great trails at nearby Catalina State Park. Definitely make time to drive to Mt. Lemmon. The views and climate change are priceless. It is true what they say, it’s like Mexico to Canada in under two hours! Make time to visit Catalina Craft Pizza and enjoy some live cowboy music and great service. Eat at Jerry Bobs for breakfast, skip the Sunnyside Up Cafe, not very good and sub par service.

A Slice of Heaven in the Catalina Foothills

The setting for this upscale home is exceptional. The Catalina Mountains form the backdrop. The views are unobstructed, stunning and evoke a sense of tranquility and peace. The home is situated on a hillside with great privacy. Yet the local market and gas station are within easy reach. Catalina State Park is nearby and offers wonderful hiking. The pool and hot tub are great places to relax and enjoy a Southwest vacation. The house is both comfortable and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well appointed and the house is fully equipped with all the amenities of modern living. The property manager is very helpful and responsive. We will certainly return and highly recommend this gem in the Catalina Foothills within easy reach of Tucson and surrounding parks.

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Elma VonMichaelis

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
Hans and Elma grew up near Cape Town, South Africa.
Elma, trained as a radiographer but assisted Hans operate a successful mining conference company for many years.

Hans completed a Ph D in Space chemistry at the University of Cape Town and earned his Pilot Wings from the South African Air Force. He now flies gliders and collects minerals.

Hans' career as a mining consultant requires frequent travel to faraway places. Hans' hobby is finding and improving tranquil homes. MiraMontes is Hans' and Elma's pride and joy. During three winter months each year when Hans and Elma spend time in Africa, they are delighted to share MiraMontes with like-minded guests.

MiraMontes is in Phase 2 of a five-stage sustainability project.. Water harvesting, tree growing, topsoil development, organic vegetable cultivation; soil erosion abatement; solar hot water; solar electric generation.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

In the course of his extensive travels, Hans has found several magic spots in the world. One of these is a guest farm called Etusis in central Namibia. The mountain setting, vegetation and climate at MiraMontes is almost identical to that at Etusis. Miramontes is, however, very much easier to get to and is much more luxurious. For most of the year MiraMontes is the owners' personal home and residence as the large number of shade trees planted need regular watering through the summer months.

To get to Etusis requires a 2-1/2 hr flight from Johannesburg to Windhoek then a two-hour drive west to Karibib followed by a 40-min drive south to the farm in the middle of 'nowhere'.

MiraMontes offers similar charm with superior accommodation, only 30-min N of Tucson and within 5-20 minutes of every amenity a guest could possibly wish for.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Step out of MiraMontes home and take off in any direction on a great hiking adventure. Up the mountain, into the foothills, along the wash or down the hill...its all beautiful and interesting.

Hans enjoys the rustic approach to MiraMontes through the Mesquite bosque across two mostly dry washes populated by free ranging cows and calves. He particularly enjoys coming along the long driveway up to Miramontes as the spectacular mountains suddenly come into view.

Elma appreciates MiraMonte's proximity to shopping, gas, groceries, hair salon, excellent restaurants, golf courses, movie houses etc.

Note: MiraMontes is all on one floor and therefore easily accessible to wheelchairs. There are however no additional 'wheelchair accessible' features such as support railings in the bathroom.
